Ingredients
Oatmeal Cookies
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1-/2 cups old fashioned rolled oats
- 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Marshmallow Cream Filling
- 2 large egg whites
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup honey
- Pinch salt
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Oatmeal Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350F and line two sheet pans with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Place butter and sugar in the bowl of a large stand mixer, fitted with a paddle attachment OR in a large mixing bowl with a wooden spoon. Mix on medium speed or by hand until creamy, about 2 minutes. Add maple syrup, egg, and vanilla to bowl and mix until smooth.
- Combine oats, flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt in a separate medium bowl. Add to butter mixture and mix until a soft dough forms.
- Use a cookie scoop to scoop dough out into 1-in balls. Place balls 1-2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets and flatten balls slightly.
- Bake cookies at 350F 10-12 minutes until cookies are a light golden brown. Remove from oven and allow cookies to cool on baking sheet 10 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
Marshmallow Cream Filling
- Whisk egg whites, sugar, honey, salt, and cream of tartar in the top bowl of a double-boiler set over barely-simmering water. Whisk frequently until mixture registers 160F on a kitchen thermometer.
- Transfer egg white mixture to a large bowl and add vanilla. Use a handheld electric mixture to whip egg whites to stiff peaks.
- Spoon marshmallow cream filling onto half of cooled cookies and top with other half of cookies to form a sandwich (do not overfill otherwise the filling will ooze out). Enjoy!
